NAPIER.
This day. A house at Porangahu occupied as a dwelling and tailors shop, was totally destroyed by fire last night. Nothing was saved. The house was insured in the Union Office for £200, and the stock and furniture for £300 in the South British.
It has transpired that the moneys voted by the Borough Council for the Hospital were not for maintenance, but for building fund ; thus the Colonial Under-Secre-tary was strictly accurate in his letter, in stating that the Council had ceased to support the Hospital. Mr Adams, on a bycicle, from Welling* ton, left this morning for the Hot Lakes.
